Dr Grace Goh
I have always been driven by a child-like curiosity to understand the world around me, complemented by a conviction that it is our duty to apply the knowledge gained for the betterment of humanity. My curiosity is easily piqued, and this has manifested in a large range of research interests; before starting my PhD, I have worked in neuroecology, genetics, bioimaging, and physiology labs. Nevertheless, these research interests have a common over-arching theme: to understand how organisms work.

Dr Grace Goh investigates the interplay between body temperature rhythms, clock gene expression, and metabolism. Her work demonstrates how daily temperature fluctuations modulate the molecular clock in mammalian and fly models, highlighting temperature as a key regulator of circadian alignment, with implications for aging and metabolic health in humans. She also has a research interest in ultradian body temperature fluctuations, challenging the notion that these events are random and exploring their underlying structure in normal and altered physiological states.
